Title: Unlock Your Brain's Full Potential: The 3-Step Decision-Making Framework

Step 1: Understand the Two Modes of Thinking

• Recognize the intuitive and automatic mode of thinking, which is quick and effortless.
• Differentiate it from the conscious, logical, and deliberate mode of thinking, which is slower and more effortful.
• Acknowledge the tendency to rely too much on conscious thinking, leading to decreased performance.

Step 2: Tap into Intuitive Decision-Making

• Aim to access the intuitive mode of thinking akin to being in a flow state.
• Understand that intuitive decision-making can be acquired outside of a flow state with proper preparation.
• Emphasize the importance of not making random gut decisions but following a structured process.

Step 3: Implement the Three-Step Decision-Making Framework

• Step 1: Define the Problem Clearly

  • Separate the symptom from the actual problem to identify the root cause.
  • Formulate a question that precisely targets the problem to activate your subconscious processing power.
  • Write down the formulated question to signal your brain to allocate mental resources to solving it.

• Step 2: Engage in Incubation

  • Step away from actively thinking about the problem and engage in lightly stimulating activities.
  • Allow your subconscious to take over and run high-level simulations to find solutions.
  • The time needed for subconscious processing varies based on the complexity of the problem.

• Step 3: Write Down Answers

  • Sit down and start writing down answers to the questions posed earlier.
  • Usually, within a minute or two of writing, the decision will become clear.
  • Leverage the neurobiological power of your subconscious to fuel your decision-making process effectively.

Additional Tips:

• Avoid mentally demanding activities like gaming or watching Netflix during the incubation phase.
• Consider going for a walk if you need immediate answers to your questions.
• Save the video for future reference and subscribe for more scientific ways to enhance your decision-making abilities.

By following this comprehensive three-step framework, you can unlock your brain's full potential and make optimal decisions with ease and efficiency.
